In the old civilization era, the iron sand desert was a modern urban agglomeration, or an economic and trade zone, or so it was called in the unearthed books.
Then the second mechanical war started, and all central cities were hit hard. The iron sand desert, a piece of urban ruins, was the product of the nuclear explosion.
Subsequently, a special ecological circle composed of radiated beasts took shape in the center of the city and expanded to the periphery.
In essence, the nuclear radiation and energy radiation in urban centers are the most intense, and the probability of distortion is also the highest.
If you have a map of the Iron Sand Desert, you will find that there are many oases dotted around them, and they are all outside the fifth ring road of the old city, commonly known as suburbs.
The name of the oasis is also closely related to the suburban industry. For example, the automobile city oasis where the senior engineer is located was formerly an automobile industrial park.
The city closest to the Auto City is called Scavenger City.
'boom! '
An off-road vehicle raced wildly on the cracked asphalt road, occasionally passing through an abandoned toll gas station.
"Radiated Beast Riot?"
The senior engineer was distracted, holding the steering wheel with one hand and scanning the Hunter's Daily with the other hand.
'Hunter Daily' is one of the industries of Wang Tian, the former director of the factory and now the desert tycoon.
Today's headlines are 'Urban riots, multiple oases attacked by beasts'.
Of course, the news is exaggerated, but it has indeed been several years since humans and radioactive beasts changed positions, and the oasis has not been attacked.
However, the clear photos of beasts eating people also prove that at least this beast attack is not fake news.
"There are two possibilities," Gao Gong tapped the steering wheel with his fingers. "The first is that a new beast king is born in a certain city. Once the beast king is born, it must expand its genetic territory to maintain its life. system."
As a veteran mechanical hunter, Gao Gong certainly understands that the S-class Beast King is not only a radiation monster, but also a radiation ecology. If this ecological crisis is not solved, the S-class Beast King cannot be killed.
"There is another possibility that this is a precursor to the Battle of Hydera."
According to the memory of the previous life, in the expansion pack [Outpost War: Hydera Destruction War], a total of more than a dozen beast kings appeared. These beast kings seemed to appear suddenly, and then destroyed the factory ecology and fell the city that never sleeps. Although in the final siege battle, the mother city was bombarded by space-based weapons and suffered heavy casualties, and finally disappeared into darkness.
But this also became the inducement for the next series of plot events.
"In today's iron sand desert, all wild beast kings have been targeted by factories, and even if there are any, they have not emerged. The latter is more likely."
In the opinion of Gao Gong, the iron-sand desert without war is the best place for leveling. It is impossible for him to give up here. The knights who frequently cause trouble are the enemies he wants to confront tit for tat.
"We can have in-depth cooperation with factories, but we still need to find suitable opportunities for cooperation. After all, we can only talk about it."
"The main profession must be upgraded to at least level 20, reaching the level of a senior combatant of the Knights, in order to be able to protect oneself."
"With the route I am taking, as long as I can successfully reach level 20, I will at least have a full level of combat effectiveness. Even if I face the core knights of the Knights, I will not be incapable of fighting."
The senior engineer's eyes moved slightly, and he turned the steering wheel sharply to the right. On the road ahead, he saw a large number of roadblocks made of old wooden boards blocking the toll station, with a forlorn figure behind him.
"Radiated corpse, we are an old acquaintance."
Ten years ago, Scavenger City was not called Scavenger City, but Hope City. A large number of refugees lived in this city, and countless mechanical hunters defended the city.
Then, the beast tide began, and the escapees were transformed into a kind of radioactive creature called 'radiation corpse', which was distributed on the outskirts of the city.
These radiation corpses have certain intelligence and are themselves small radiation sources. The more people there are, the greater the power of radiation. When a certain number of people is reached, the radiation will be connected. Not only will the power and speed be greatly enhanced, but also flame radiation will be born. Special varieties such as corpses, weapon radiation corpses, trackers, and dancers.
Sure enough, when the senior engineer stepped off the road and entered the muddy area, a pile of radioactive corpses blocked the way.
There are quite a few of these radiated corpses, at least hundreds of them. Most of them are no different from living people except for their red complexions and bloodshot eyes. The power of radiation allows them to retain a certain degree of vitality.
The senior engineer stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and crashed into the car without hesitation. The front bumper of the car with a thick steel plate was like bowling, hitting four or five at one time, and four or five at the other.
The body that has been modified through lv3 [Mechanical Modification] has a wilder performance and is more suitable for desert survival.
A few radioactive zombies tried to grab the tire, but as soon as they grabbed it, they were minced by the wheel equipped with pure steel tracks.
[You have killed the radiation zombie, experience +1]
[You have killed the radiation zombie, experience +1]
[You have killed the radiation zombie, experience +1]
The system panel was flooded with a series of +1 messages. After more than thirty consecutive messages, the off-road vehicle finally passed through the pile of corpses. There was a strong smell of blood all over the body.
The senior engineer's expression was calm. In the memory of the original owner, this was just child's play, and in the memory of the previous life, it was even less worth mentioning. After all, high-level civilized wars are based on planets.
As soon as he entered the fifth ring road of the scavenging city, the senior engineer immediately stepped on the brakes. The urban areas of every city were dangerous, and only experienced hunters could identify the animal paths and trails in them.
Arguing in like a drone team is basically courting death.
The senior engineer parked the car in a safe place outside the Fifth Ring Road, not because he was afraid that the smell of blood would attract wild beasts, but rather the off-road vehicle itself was what attracted the wild beasts.
Radiation beasts are divided into two categories, radiation beasts and mechanical biochemical beasts. The former feed on energy, and the latter eat metal and electronic components.
After more than ten years of hunting, the beasts that can now occupy a corner of the urban circle are undoubtedly hard-core.
To deal with such tough enemies, the current method of mechanical hunters is to first call the factory's bombers to bomb the area, and then deploy artillery, tanks, and heavy machine guns on the periphery of the area to contain them layer by layer, step by step.
It's safe in this way, but 'hunting' is out of the question, because both the radiation beasts and the mechanical biochemical beasts have the ability to self-destruct. Once they self-destruct, all the mechanical hunters can get is the remains.
The classical mechanical hunters from more than ten years ago only used cold weapons and did not even have physical implants.
Since there is no electronic signal sent out, there is no need to worry about being discovered by these mechanical monsters. They can lurk in the shadows and kill with one hit. They can keep the whole body and sell it to the factory to earn a lot of mechanical coins.
This approach is good for everything, but there is only one problem, the mortality rate is too high, so the mechanical hunters of the classical style gradually withdraw from the stage of history.
What Gao Gong is doing now is a variation of the classical hunting style.
He put down the big bag behind him, and without him having to do anything, four human heads poked out of it, looked around, and then started barking "woof, woof, woof".
"Silence!!"
The senior engineer looked at them with a warning look, and the human-headed dogs suddenly let out a 'wow', with aggrieved expressions on their faces.
"Remember what I told you before."
"Ooooooo!"
The senior engineer shook the package again, shaking off the robot ants. These ants had been set to 'tracking mode' in advance. Their sensor modules were interconnected with the human-headed dog. Wherever the human-headed dog ran, they would follow.
"Then go ahead."
The senior engineer gave an order, and the four human-headed dogs plunged into the concrete forest like happy huskies.
The senior engineer took out a tablet computer from the old civilization era and opened it. On the map, four yellow dots were moving erratically in four directions.
'Enable creature mode. '
'Biological mode is on'
A cold electronic sound sounded.
At the tails of the four human-headed dogs, an awl-like thing slowly started to spin. Under its influence, the sensing elements, nerve shunt elements, and chemical catalytic converters hanging on the awl entered the connection state one after another.
The scientific name of this metal awl is a bioimplant, and its function is to piece together the electronic brain and the physical body and make them work well.
Turning on the biological implant in the concrete jungle is like coming to a special place with feasting and entertainment, and a special person says to you, "Brother, let's play", or "Sir, what number do you want?"
Generally speaking, this can have quite irritating consequences.
The senior engineer hit the Enter key again, and the 'radiation detectors' on the four human-headed dogs lit up.
Around the yellow dot transformed into a human-headed dog, a series of numbers were changing rapidly.
Radiation beasts generally use radiation levels to determine their danger levels, which are divided into seven levels, F, E, D, C, B, A, S. It is said that there are higher-level beast kings above S, but they have never appeared.
Among them, the baseline of F level is 10 points of radiation value, E level is 100 points, D level is 1000 points, and so on.
The radioactive corpse that he had smashed into a pulp before was the lowest level F.
According to the classification of players, F-level is a minion, E-level is an elite monster, D-level is a mini-boss, and C-level is a land-opening boss...
The highest-level monster the original owner killed was a C-level reaper. It looked like a heavy-armored sword warrior two people tall. Its pair of scythes could easily cut through the shell of a heavy tank. The sword-wielding one The speed is close to Mach 1.
After the original owner killed it, he lay in bed for a full month.
This is also the highest level mechanical biochemical beast that the original owner has killed after being a mechanical hunter for more than ten years.
The senior engineer came here just to upgrade and practice his skills. He had no intention of fighting against C-level beasts.
If you really encounter a boss of this level, what else can you do——
Of course it was a dog's life. ╮(╯▽╰)╭
Soon, one of the human-headed dogs began to change direction and rushed back frantically.
The number behind it is fixed at 141 points.
This is an E-level beast, its species is unknown, but its level is just right.
Just use it to sacrifice the knife.
The senior engineer closed the computer and slowly pulled out the red unicorn from the knife box.
The red knife does not see blood, but when it sees blood it is truly red.
